Intelligence ~Wendy

Hello everyone, welcome to “The Intelligence Program“. I am your hostess Wendy. Almost everyone has heard of IQ and EQ and most have taken IQ tests. However, a person’s intelligence is more than just IQ and EQ. Today on “The Intelligence Program”, we will learn about what modern psychologists now believe about intelligence.
First of all, a person’s IQ is his or her ability to solve problems well, understand and learn complex material, and also the ability to adapt to environments. Psychologists have designed many examinations to measure it. Everyone has a different rank, or “IQ”, which is short for “Intelligence Quotient”.
The next component of our intelligence is our “EQ”, or “Emotional Quotient”. It is the ability to understand and regulate emotions effectively. Our EQ helps us to be conscious of ourselves and others. EQ involves intelligence, subjective experiences and inclinations. According to psychologist Daniel Goleman, our EQ is the basic condition to effective utilization of our IQ.
The last part of our intelligence is called our “Spiritual Quotient” or "SQ". Computers can have IQ, and many advanced mammals have EQ, but our SQ is what makes us humans. It is our ability to have faith, dream, believe, and pursue values with actions. It shapes who we are, and what we do.
Psychologists now believe that IQ, EQ, SQ are the three components of human intelligence.
Do you think that intelligence influences humanity? What’s the relationship between the two? To find out, tune in to “The Intelligence Program” the same time next week.
